The famous melody (In the jungle, the mighty jungle, the lion sleeps tonight) at 13:52
Quelle merveille de retrouver l'authenticité de ces magnifiques chants et la douleur que l'on ressent dans Mbube, me touche au fond du cœur.
Shout out to you for keeping their legacy alive👏👏💯💯🔥
They never received their royalties, nor acknowledged. So sorry, rest kings we know who are the originators are " The Lion Sleeps tonight, Wimboweh -Solomon &The Evening Birds🙏🙏💖💖. A favorite song, wow🎵🎵🎵🎶🎶🎶🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤
Sometimes you pray so hard and long. Sometimes you get answered. Thanks Sir.
This is awesome. It reminds me of Ladysmith black mambaza with Joseph shabalala on vocal. This is the purest sound there is. The Blues in its original form. 😎
Nostalgic original sound, pure...

Africa is rising but only in population supposed to go x4 with in the next century, if they want to rise like you are saying they need to stop all the corruption and vandalism and be better vy way of doing and not just talking instead of blaming everyone else for their failures

Start to look forward and not backwards to what could have been and rather look forward to what potential Africa has, if you can't see the potential Africa won't be rising but collapsing
love Ngi Hambile

It's also one of my favorites. Specially the part after the intro.
